Are the yellow tape and Universal Tubeless Valve system the only additional items you'll need, or is a No Tubes Conversion Kit still needed? I ask, because the No Tubes Kit comes with the yellow tape and I believe the valves, so I wouldn't want to buy repeat items. Thanks for the link!

This is posted in other threads, but I just picked up a Hope Pro II Evo/Crest 29er wheelset for $385 shipped from wiggle.co.uk using a coupon I found online.
No, you don't get to pick your colors, and the only option for 29er rim is Crest, but if you really want Crest/Hope, this is an AWESOME deal.

Weighed the Hope 2 EVO with the Crests...

Got these from Wiggle for around $385. Seriously fast international /trackable shipping (ordered on April 11--arrived using USPS on the Saturday, the 14th.

Weight of the set using a hanging Park Tools scale: 1720# without skewers or rotors.

Wheels were both true out of the box. 2 extra spokes for each wheel.

Boxes were packed well. Rear freewheel spin was the loudest on the group ride...reminds me of my pre-disc Chris King zing...

One thing to note, it was really tight getting the Rocket Rons on for Stans conversion. (Yes, I got the beads in the channel) The rim lip is tight. Ditched the green tape mesh (not stans tape) and wrapped wheels with black electrical tape (doubled)...sealed up so fast.
